Forum Access from a Mac

[daved]

Probably a question for Neil but I can't get on to the Forum tonight from my Mac.

Currently on Moira's laptop. Anyone any ideas? The error message is that the address cannot be found. This happens on both Firefox and Safari search engines. But I can get on to .org and the F Register.

Cheers

Dave

I've just tried my mobile and even that is logging on ok, with the exception that it screws the display up but that's normal!

Dave, you've been using your Mac quite happily before haven't you?

I'm here; no problems to report in Safari. Is it sorted now Dave?

[daved]

Dave, have you run any updates recently, OS X or internet plug-ins? Are you running Leopard (OS X 10.5) or Tiger (OS X 10.4)?

[daved]

No updates mate. A firefox update weeks ago so it shouldn't be that. I'm running Tiger.

Can you take a screen shot in Grab of your nework prefs and I'll see if I can spot something odd.

Must say , over the last couple of weeks the Forum page has taken ages to appear after clicking it. Comes up in the end , just takes longer than it used to. No robs with any other sites.....

No tech jagon thanks ! oH OK THEN......

[uk kiwis]

That should be no 'probs' of cource.

[Rich]

It's coming up as quick as it ever has for me. Nothing has changed except for the widgets on the left which have been there for a while now. At the moment we seem to have a 'no-go' with a mac and 'slow-go' with a PC, so not really much to go on.

Has anyone else had any problems?

Rich

[Dark Knight]

im running fine on both laptops!

The home one should as its new. But even the old decrepid thing i have at work, runs the forum nice and quick, just a shame it doesnt work for work purposes just as quick but never mind ....

Dave is all fixed now!!! I'm sat in front of his MAC right now! Seems a problem with the Tiscali DNS servers, so I have switched him to use some others and all ok.
